Cheek filler is a cosmetic treatment term for a type of injectable treatment that is used to improve the appearance of sunken or hollow cheeks. Cheek fillers are performed using dermal fillers made of Hyaluronic Acid, a gel like substance that is commonly found in the human body. By injecting dermal fillers into the cheeks it can restore and improve lost volume that occurs from aging and other lifestyle factors. Cheek fillers are a common dermal filler procedure for patients concerned with looking tired, saggy or heavy in the face. Cheek fillers can help add natural contours and lift to the face restoring natural beauty and help improve common signs of aging.
Cheek fillers work by adding hyaluronic acid fillers in the cheeks, giving them a more youthful appearance as well as correcting folds and fine lines and wrinkles caused by aging. Cheek filler includes improving volume loss in the cheeks, improving cheek contours, lift and add shape while softening nasolabial folds and help lift the jowl area. By injecting dermal filler into the cheeks it helps restore face shape, symmetry and soften nose to mouth lines as well as giving a youthful appearance to the face.
With all hyaluronic acid filler injections their is a risk of infection at the site of the injection as well as vascular occlusion. At VIVA we only perform cheek filler procedures with our highly skilled team of doctors and nurses using CE approved filler for safety. Filler injections are a cosmetic procedure, so a medical review and a face to face consultation is required.

However, we ensure this procedure is as pain-free as possible with topical anaesthetic, effective products with lidocaine and advanced injection techniques. We use both cannula and needle for cheek fillers.
Due to the nature of injectable treatments, there is a possibility of some minor side effects, most of which subside up two-four weeks after treatment. Common side effects include:
Any potential side effects will be discussed during your consultation with a member of the VIVA team.

Everybody’s face is different. We are all wonderfully unique, and it is therefore impossible to state exactly what the final result will be without having assessed you. However, we can note that the purpose of cheek fillers is to add volume and enhancement to the face to help smooth out wrinkles and plump the area surrounding the cheekbones, as well as to define and give the illusion of a greater bone structure.
Depending on the desired result, at your consultation our practitioners will discuss the likely result with you, and ensure that you leave the clinic looking and feeling your best post treatment.
Our aesthetic practitioners are medically trained and supervised by our medical director, Dr. Rupert, who has over 12 years of experience.

Most dermal fillers tend to fall within the 6 to 18-month range, however, the expected longevity of your fillers will also vary from person to person. The general ‘rule of thumb’ when it comes to cheek filler longevity is 9-12 months.
The exact longevity might change based on the volume of filler used, the precise areas being treated as well as the patient’s metabolism and lifestyle. However, our injectors will be happy to discuss specifics at your consultation.
Initial results will be visible as soon as you leave the clinic, however, it will take up to four weeks for the filler to integrate and settle under the skin for final results.
